Centennial commemorative stamp A special long-term 5¢ commemorative stamp to mark Can- ada's 100th year as a nation will be a bright production in colours of red, white and blue. The scheduled date of release is January 11, 1967. Designed by Brigdens Limited, Toronto, the new stamp is large in size and vertical in format. It depicts a globe on which is em- phasized in bold blue Canada's area on the North American Con- tinent; matching in color is the official Centennial symbol with the years 1867-1967 at the lower right. Superimposed on the up- per area is the red and white national flag. In keeping with the significance of the event the new issue will remain on sale throughout the year. In this way it will differ from most commemorative stamps in Canada which are normally pro- duced in numbers sufficient for an estimated 10 days' sale. Safety week begins December 1 At midnight next Wednesday Canada's annual Safe Driving 'Week begins. The campaign, sponsored across Canada by the Canadian Safety Council with active participation by provincial safety organizations, closes at midnight, December 7. Every day in Canada more than 400 men, women and children are plunged into agonies of body and mind in road traffic. Many are permanently disabled. They did not expect to be hurt and in many cases it could have been avoided. "A human being is no match for 3, 000 pounds of racing steel and glass, yet everyday hundreds of humans challenge these speed- ing behemoths to duels the humans cannot win," said the Council. Every motorist is urged to practise defensive driving to recognize, and avoid highway perils during Safe Driving Week. He will then drive with more confidence and security the rest of the year. Need old fur coats March of Dimes workshops throughout Ontario urgently need old fur coats to keep up with the demands for the Eskimo dolls which 'are produced in these shops by the physically disabled. If you can help out, please send these coats to the Rehabilitation Foundation for the Disabled, 12 Overlea Boulevard, Toronto 17. The dolls are one of the products made under the Foundation's sheltered workshop program. This provides employment for physi- cally disabled citizens of Ontario who cannot compete in regular. industry. Most important, it keeps them off total welfare. The Eskimo dolls are sold through regular retail stores, but now demand is exceeding supply. • Awards were presented to members of the Sunday school at the morning service in Wing- ham United Church on Sunday for 100 percent attendance. 1st Year Award: Darlene Rintoul, Carol Ann McClure, Wayne Sinnamon, Murray Fear, Jimmie Laidlaw, Barton Irwin, Richard Sinnanion, Wayne Mc- Kee, Joanne Marks, Daryl Mc- Clure, Karen Reid, Arlene Wil- lis. 2nd Year Award: Pamela Gerrie, Rosemarie Fear, Carol Galbraith, Golda Sewers, Janet Wood, Edwin Haines, Danny Irwin, Sharon McKee, Stewart Beattie, Mrs. G.
